The OEM has already been ordered. This is my daily driver and I really needed it to be fixed as fast as possible. I'll try to get a warranty claim for the Spec and then resell it on the board to anyone who wants it to try and recoup some of the expenditure.

I should have it back with the MSDS headers installed tomorrow. Luckily, my Redline MTL also showed up, so my mechanic also changed out the break-in trannie fluid from when I had the Torsen installed.

Bad thing is I'll have to break in the clutch again before I can try out the headers. But by then my custom CAI from Brad Noon should be ready.

Which reminds me. Need to ask some questions in the performance forum.
